Pte. Herbert Hough
British Army 7th Btn. South Lancashire Regiment
from:Ashton under Lyne
Herbert Hough was my grandfather. He enlisted in the 7th South Lancashire Regiment in August 1914 at Ashton under Lyne Ladysmith Barracks. He went to France with the regiment July 1915 and was later discharged as no longer physically fit for war on 16th September 1917. Family stories suggest he was exposed to gas?? Sadly he was killed in an industrial accident in 1926 when my mother was five years of age.
